Condition Rating
Good
This property consists of two distinct buildings: a single-family home built in 1905 and a duplex built in 2008. The duplex, being only 16 years old, falls squarely within the 'Good' condition criteria, and the limited interior image (Image 5) shows modern flooring and paint, suggesting well-maintained units. While the 1905 single-family home's interior condition (especially kitchen and bathrooms) is not shown, its exterior appears maintained, and the property is marketed as income-producing, implying functionality. The presence of separate utility meters for all units is a positive. Given that two out of three units are relatively new and likely in good condition, the overall property leans towards 'Good' as it is largely move-in ready with functional systems, despite the age of the front house.
Pros & Cons
Pros
High Income Potential & Multi-Unit: Explicitly designed as an income-producing property with a triplex configuration (SFH + duplex), offering diversified rental income streams.
Separate Utility Metering: All units feature individual meters for water, gas, and electricity, optimizing landlord profitability and promoting tenant accountability for utility costs.
Modern Duplex Construction: The duplex, built in 2008, provides newer construction benefits, potentially reducing immediate maintenance costs and appealing to modern tenants.
Prime Downtown Long Beach Location: Situated in a desirable urban area, close to St. Mary's Hospital and the Aquarium of the Pacific, ensuring strong rental demand and access to amenities/employment.
Generous Parking: Each unit includes a 2-car garage, plus additional parking spaces, which is a significant and valuable amenity in a dense urban environment.
Cons
Age of Original Structure: The 1905 single-family home may present challenges with older systems, higher maintenance, and potential for significant renovation needs to meet modern tenant expectations.
Shared Wall in Duplex: The duplex units are separated by a shared wall, which could lead to noise concerns for tenants and potentially impact privacy.
Maintenance Discrepancy: The significant age difference between the 1905 SFH and the 2008 duplex suggests potentially disparate maintenance requirements and overall property conditions, necessitating varied upkeep strategies.
